1999 XK8 Electrical problems

[British Andrew]

Hi Everyone - I just acquired a non-running Jaguar XK8, 1999. The body and running gear are accident-free, rust free and generally in good shape - except for the engine, which was damaged when the timing chain either slipped or broke.  So I have a long haul ahead of me, to bring the car back to running condition.  Right now, I need access to a wiring diagram so I can test out the various components and make sure there are no issues. Can someone please point me to a wiring diagram for this model?   Thanks for your help.
